All week I spend the days eagerly waiting for the weekend and when the weekend finally arrives, I blink and then it’s Monday again. Anyone else feel the same way? Well I hope everyone had a fabulous weekend, I know I did by exploring Central Park and visiting new, trendy restaurants in the West Village and Soho with friends. Ever since moving to the city, I feel like I have to be stylish 24/7 and even when I do “dress up” I’m always envious of everyone’s outfits in the city. Although, I don’t feel nearly as fashionable as everyone else… View Post

Hello everyone! This blog post is way overdue. For those of you who don’t know, in March, I followed my dreams and heart and moved to New York City. And for those who already knew that because you follow me on Instagram and keep up to date with all my city adventures, it has been a wonderful past couple of months as I make one of my favorite cities my new home. I knew once I signed the lease for my studio apartment on the Upper West Side, I had the exciting chance to decorate my new space the way… View Post

Now that Thanksgiving has come and gone, the frigid temperatures seem to be here to stay, and it got me thinking that snowy weather is just around the corner. I’ve never been a fan of the snow. Yeah, the first snow fall always looks beautiful and peaceful but after a few snow storms I’m over it. Plus, have you ever walked through the streets of Manhattan while it’s snowing or after a big snow storm? It’s a slushy mess that just makes my commute unbearable. I’d rather an autumn wonderland than a winter wonderland, so before the snow arrives, I’m… View Post

T-minus one day until Turkey Day! Are you mentally preparing for what you will be stuffing your face with on Thanksgiving? Or how about strategically planning for how you are gonna fit all the Thanksgiving specialties on one plate? For me, I’m planning what I’m gonna wear for the Thanksgiving festivities. For Thanksgiving my family gathers at my aunt’s house so I don’t have to worry about dressing too fancy but still want to look stylish yet still be comfy because it’s a long day of eating and drinking a couple glasses of wine (I’m gonna need it to get… View Post

Is it just me or are others really freaked out over how fast 2017 is speeding by. I can’t believe next week is already Thanksgiving. Maybe freaked out is the wrong phrase but it just boggles my mind we are already fully in holiday mode. Just today I was listening to the radio on my way to the train station and I heard a Christmas ad and thought to myself isn’t it a little early for Christmas ads and that’s when it hit me…Christmas is next month. Are you for real? Or in this case are you FAUX real? You… View Post

If you ever get a little bored of wearing the same old trusty outfits or rocking the same old style you’ve always rocked, then mixing up your style could be the way forward. Sometimes, when we wear things we wouldn’t usually go for, it can really open up our minds and change our perspective on what we consider to be “our style.” You can be whoever you want from day to day. Be a hippie today and a sharp business woman tomorrow. Wear the clothes that make you feel the way you want to feel. You’re under no obligation to… View Post

Does anyone know the difference between plaid, checkered, or the buffalo plaid pattern? To me these three terms are interchangeable. Although in the fashion world, plaid is described as different sized vertical and horizontal stripes of two or more colors, checkered is described as equal sized squares of two alternating colors, and buffalo plaid is described as a larger, square checkered pattern. I had to brush off on my old skills of working retail at Madewell and learning all about their trendy flannels and all the different patterns so I settled on buffalo plaid to describe the shirt I’m wearing… View Post

So you celebrated the summer season with a bright and light decor that gave your home a fresh and exciting style? Great! But the problem with the summer style is that, once the Halloween pumpkins are out, it doesn’t look as stylish and exciting as it did in July. It’s time to work on your transitional decor and to prepare the home for winter… but first, let’s think of the Halloween decor. No, it doesn’t mean sticking a plastic skeleton on the shelf and hoping for the best. It’s about getting the colors and feelings of fall into your home… View Post

In·di·an sum·mer ˈindēən ˈˌsəmər/ noun – a period of unusually dry, warm weather occurring in late autumn. A mild, warm autumn or an Indian summer is certainly what New England has been experiencing throughout September and the early part of October. I always felt that once Labor Day came the weather did a 180 and started to actually feel like fall. But lately temperatures have been abnormally high in the 70s and 80s. The days have felt like a continuation of the dog days of summer, especially in New York City. A lot of the time I am overheating by… View Post

Hands down, one of my favorite things about being a blogger and a Youtuber, is the events. Events, like tradeshows, panels, fashion shows, and forums, is where I get the chance to be surrounded by people like me. Meeting other talented bloggers and influencers is what makes blogging worthwhile. I can’t describe the feeling I get when I finally put a face to a name, meet some of the people behind my favorite brands, discover new brands, and the best part meeting new blogger friends. This is exactly what the Her Campus Fashion Week is all about. I’m extremely grateful… View Post

If there was any award show that I could go to and strut down the red carpet it would be the Grammy’s. This award show is filled with tons of music, celebs, and of course fashion. To me, the Grammy’s is the chance to experiment with style and wear something unique and funky. So I love when I see my favorite celebs take some fashion risks on the red carpet. Keep on scrolling to read all about my favorite looks from last night’s big event. Solange Knowles Solange Knowles dazzled in a metallic gold dress by Gucci. The Knowles family… View Post

It’s been five days and I am still on a fashion high from Saturday’s Her Campus Fashion Show. It was a night filled with awesome style, lots of freebies, great music, loads of pictures, and most importantly empowerment. As I mentioned in my previous post, all four of the fashion shows featured creative entrepreneur designers, including My Social Canvas, Foray, Ali & Ariel, Frill Clothing, and Bow & Drape. I loved watching the models strut on the runway, featuring the amazing designs from the four designers. I was so impressed with the fashion and I was so happy I got… View Post
